1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Radiation pneumonitis is a common and serious complication of radiotherapy for thoracic tumours. Although radiotherapy technology is constantly improving, the incidence of radiation pneumonitis is still not low, and severe cases can be life-threatening. Once radiation pneumonitis develops into radiation fibrosis (RF), it will have irreversible consequences, so it is particularly important to prevent the occurrence and development of radiation pneumonitis. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have rapidly altered the treatment landscape for multiple tumour types, providing unprecedented survival in some patients, especially for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, in addition to its remarkable curative effect, ICls may cause immune-related adverse events. The incidence of checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is 3% to 5%, and its mortality rate is 10% to 17%. In addition, the incidence of CIP in NSCLC is higher than in other tumour types, reaching 7%-13%. With the increasing use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICls) and thoracic radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with NSCLC, ICIs may induce delayed radiation pneumonitis in patients previously treated with radiation therapy, or radiation activation of the systemic immune system increases the toxicity of adverse reactions, which may lead to increased pulmonary toxicity and the incidence of pneumonitis. In this paper, the data about the occurrence of radiation pneumonitis, immune pneumonitis, and combined treatment and the latest related research results will be reviewed.
